Team Alfa Seventy-Ninth Session

31st Sunforge

• the scouts return, the bridge is clear
• we send to the giants:
  • "We're about a week away from the mountain - do you need assistance with the Orcs? Happy to help if you can provide
    • WE CLASHED WITH A GROUP: SENT UP THE MOUNTAIN. WE HAVE TAKEN SEVERAL CAPTIVES. THEY APPEAR TO BE SUPPORTED BY A NEARBY KINGDOM.
  • Which side of the mountain is their encampment? Do you know which Kingdom supports
    • THE SETTLEMENT IS AT THE BASE OF THE NORTH FACE OF THE MOUNTAIN. THEIR SIGIL IS A YELLOW SUN WITH EIGHT RAYS.
      • this is one of the symbols of the Neo Alexandrian cult/heresy that you studied up on.

32nd Sunforge

• sending to halfling mate (elias black or something)
  • "We took care of your fallen at the outpost. Need to borrow it a bit while we rebuild monstertown. Have coin to trade if you have wares"
    • LIZARDFOLK FLEEING THE ERUPTION ATTACKED THE TOWN. WE DROVE THEM OFF AND FELL BACK. WAITING AT TRADE FORT NORTH OF VILLAGE FOR THE NEXT CIRCUIT.
  • "Don't rush on our account - we won't stay long. We'll make sure we clean the altar for you"
    • AMENABLE TO TRADE DISCUSSION -- NO HARD FEELINGS IF THE CAMP IS RETURNED TO US IN GOOD ORDER. WE ARE AT MIDDLE TRADE FORT HEADING NORTH. PLAN TO WINTER AT MOUNTAIN-ON-THE-SEA

1st Summer Supplication

When the group arrives, it's BIGGER (roughly doubled)! and includes GRUUL THE GREAT. Gruul seems "off", more "flattened". With investigation and conversation, Sid realises he is a simulacrum.

Lots of talk with the council. General understanding that the dwarves and halflings will probably leave us alone for long enough to gather our strength and set out for dogtown.

Thola makes a pitch to the crowd to start worshiping the glory of the Mountain. The kobolds are on board.

Close

Alfa heads out to meet with the giants to fix their Orc problem. We will aim to meet the returning scouts on the way.
